Substance abuse, alcoholism and addiction are very difficult to deal with, even from the relatively safe distance of a theater seat.

They can be dangerous roles to play for an actor, but they are also juicy, dramatic characters full of flaws and hitting rock bottom.

Once upon a time in film, these examinations of recovering addicts were staples of serious, Award-courting movies – things like The Lost Weekend, The Days of Wine and Roses, Leaving Las Vegas and Clean and Sober.

In recent years, this kind of film (and role) has become a bit scarcer, partially because of the discomfort of the audiences, partially because of the extreme toll the characters can take on the actors.

Therefore, all credit is due to Saoirse Ronan – who has always been a fairly fearless actress – for allowing herself to take the bumpy emotional ride of the small arthouse film The Outrun, which was adapted from an acclaimed memoir by Amy Liptrot.

Ronan plays Rona, a thirty-ish recovering alcoholic who had spent a decade partying in London and has now moved back to the area in which she grew up – the Orkney Islands off of Scotland – in an attempt to get her life back on track. (The somewhat inscrutable sounding title The Outrun actually refers to a type of outlying coastal farmland on Orkney that's not suitable for cultivation, which is where Rona ends up taking residence and reinventing herself.)

The Outrun flips back and forth in time in Rona’s life – from her troubled childhood with a bi-polar father and religious mother, to her wild party days in London, to her current desperate attempts to keep herself sober.

Needless to say, there are some very depressing parts of The Outrun. However, as Rona rediscovers her home in the stunningly beautiful, if slightly remote and rundown island, the nature and the landscape soothes the audience as well as the heroine, which is a nice cinematic trick.

By simplifying her life, her needs and her world, we can see Rona potentially getting it all together, and it is a rather cathartic feeling.

The Outrun is not the type of movie that will ever get a huge following – particularly not in this period of cinematic history – and that is kind of a shame. It is definitely a film worth seeing.

I just hope that it makes enough of a splash that Saoirse Ronan is remembered during Awards season, because this fearless tightrope performance is definitely worthy of at the very least some serious nominations.

BBC announces cast for major new drama series Dope Girls 

"Filming has begun on #DopeGirls for BBC One @bbciplayer The series is inspired by a forgotten time in history when, after the losses of World War One, the streets of Soho were home to female gangs running the clubs, drugs and moonshine…

Julianne Nicholson (Mare of Easttown) stars as Kate Galloway, a single mother who establishes a nightclub amidst the hedonistic uproar of post-World War One London, embracing a life of criminal activities with the dedicated aim of providing for her daughter Evie, played by Eilidh Fisher (The Power). This is where we find Billie Cassidy played by Umi Myers (Bob Marley One Love), a bohemian dancer whose life is turned upside down by Kate’s arrival.

Geraldine James (Anne with an E) will also star as Isabella, the leader of the criminal Salucci family that also includes Sebastian Croft (Heartstopper) as Silvio Salucci and Rory Fleck Bryne (This Is Going To Hurt), Dustin Demri-Burns (Slow Horse).

Eliza Scanlen (Little Women) will play Violet Davies, one of the first wave of female officers for the Metropolitan Police, who is assigned to go undercover and investigate the illicit world of underground Soho nightclubs."

Happy  Birthday Scottish actress Simone Lahbib.

Born as Simone Nicole Jean Lahbib Ould Cheikl ,1965 in Stirling to a Scots mother and French Algerian father, she received her acting training at Queen Margaret College in Edinburgh after four years at The Manor School of Ballet in Edinburgh.

One of her first performances was playing the part of Cathy in Wuthering Heights in rep at the Brunton Theatre in Musselburgh. Simone’s first big role was in the film The Girl in the Picture which also starred Scottish stalwarts John Gordon Sinclair, Gregor Fisher and Rikki Fulton, she has went on to star in many quality TV shows including Thief Takers, Taggart (twice), Monarch of the Glen, and perhaps her most famous role as  Wing Governor of G-Wing in the prison drama, Bad Girls.

I have to mention I never watched Bad Girls and know Simone better for the brilliant Wire in the Blood where she played  D.I. Alex Fielding. In 2017 we saw her on our screens in the powerful thriller The Loch, she also appeared in the the equally tense drama A Confession in 2019. 

Lahbib married British-Italian actor Raffaello Degruttola in 2003 in her hometown of Stirling they have a daughter, Skye.

In 2010, she established the Eilidh Brown Memorial Fund in honour of her niece who died of cancer on 25th March 2010, nine days before her 16th birthday. The charity fund benefits children with cancer and their families. Simone was honoured as the Stirling Highland Games Chieftain in 2018. We last saw Simone in an episode of the crime drama Vera, in January this year.

what are your favorite ships with significant height differences?

so obviously my reaction to this was to have a good long trawl through my otp tag to assess how tall all my favourite ships are, because this question deserves a thorough and well considered answer 

veronica and logan

she has to stand up on tip-toes to kiss him and he literally says something along the lines of “it’s not my fault you’re so short”, they are height difference gold

jyn and cassian

admittedly I’m pretty sure felicity jones is so tiny anyone would seem tall beside her (I just looked it up she’s the same height as me lol) but cassian is able to lean right over jyn of course I love it

catherine and tilney

like I said, felicity jones, just look how far he has to bend down

anne and gilbert

you can’t see the difference as much in the sequel when the full edwardian-style hair adds about five inches to her height but it always sticks out to me here

galavant and isabella

just look at the difference she’s basically only up to his chest I mean

clark and lois

particularly the smallville incarnation because she is wearing gigantic heels and she still has to step up on something to be able to kiss him, this is what height difference tropes are made of

chloe and oliver

he’s so much taller than her she could just tuck her head right under his chin and he could put his head on top of hers and it would be adorable

han and leia

speaking of tucking heads under chins look who’s doing just that 

jackson and april

he has to pick her up every time they kiss or hug which is one of my favourite things about height difference tropes

lucas and maya

the looking down, the lean in ... I will forever be sad that this ship didn’t get to grow to fruition

victoria and albert

bonus points for historical accuracy

I don’t have a gif but cullen and lavellan from dragon age, particularly I headcanon eilidh as about 5′1″ and cullen as at least 6″

this post is getting ridiculously long, so I will leave the gifs and just also give mentions to: usagi and mamoru from sailor moon, nathan drake and elena fisher from uncharted, elizabeth bennet and darcy from pride and prejudice

I also wanna say thor and sif but I’m not sure if that’s because there’s an actual height difference or just because chris hemsworth is so tall I feel like everyone looks short next to him

and for what it’s worth I’ve always headcanoned james and lily has having a height difference, and no offence to daniel radcliffe (because he is a ray of sunshine and I adore him) but I always considered harry to be taller than he is in the films so for me there’s more of a difference between him and luna

basically, if it’s not clear yet: I really love height differences
